Oh yeah, I once saw a 442 or something like that with a Quad 4 in it. I really wanted it, was in impeccable shape but I've heard conflicting stories about the Quad 4, so at the time I was looking for a DD and those have a reputation of being rather finicky so I passed. Have you ever owned one long term? I had a regular Quad and in my God Dam and it was a great little terd. Always wanted another one with either 4 banger mated to a 5 speed. All of them appear to have been run into the ground haha.

I never have owned a Quad, but the guys on the forum that do absolutely love them!

If I could find another one and am in the market for a "new" car, I'd buy one..

Didn't watch the video but protip is to take an old ketchup bottle or something, fill it with gas and then fill the float bowls up through the bowl's vent. This way the engine will fire & run while the pump works to get gas up to the carb without burning up your starter & extended dry cranking.

Very interesting! That's a good idea man...

It was much happier firing up yesterday, first time I've started it since. Still haven't moved it, haha.

LoL yeah, it would be nice to have an auxiliary vehicle again. Now whenever a car is down I'll either tap Ashley or she'll tap me. Short of the initial month or two, her Ford trucks have never had to have unexpected visits to the shop. Can't say that about my Chevy stuff..

The gold one is my Electra Park Avenue, and the Beretta is my baby, haha. The yellow one is the lady's '06 Charger Daytona. I still need to take my Caprice out on the road... Still hasn't moved out of the gravel patch, lol. Occasionally I see one that looks like mine out here too! It's probably mid '80's, but gray and black top too.

I thought that looked like a Buick Electra. You used to see those things everywhere around here up until about 5 years ago or so. Now you almost never see them.

Do you use Hagerty or similar classic car insurance for any of your cars? I use it on my '78 and only costs like $125/yr in insurance. My '96 and '89 are regular insurance but I'm thinking of maybe moving the '89 over as well because as of right now I'm paying about $100/month for each of them.
